A variable-resistance memory and a writing method thereof are provided. The variable-resistance memory includes a variable-resistance memory cell, a voltage-signal-generation circuit, a switch circuit, a detection circuit, and a controller. The variable-resistance memory cell includes a variable-resistance component and a transistor. The voltage-signal-generation circuit is coupled to the control terminal of the transistor. The switch circuit is coupled to the variable-resistance component and transistor. The detection circuit is coupled to a voltage source and the switch circuit. The controller is coupled to the voltage-signal-generation circuit, switch circuit, and detection circuit. When the controller performs a writing operation on the variable-resistance memory cell, the voltage-signal-generation circuit provides a voltage signal to the transistor, and the detection circuit continuously detects whether the variable-resistance component performs a resistance conversion. If the resistance conversion occurs, then the controller stops the writing operation.
